'''CLEAN PEA(SE) STRAW/STRAE'''. AKA and see "[[Old Buttie Was a Bonnie Lad]]," "[[Pea Straw]]," "[[Pease Strae]]/[[Pease Straw]]," "[[What'll All the Lasses Do]]" (Shetland). English, Scottish, Shetland; Hornpipe or Reel. England, Northumberland. D Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. Glen (1891) finds the tune earliest in print in Robert Bremner's 1757 collection (p. 65). Pease strae, or pease straw, consists of dried stems and leaves.  It has many uses in agricultural areas: it is a fodder for horses, if not sandy, but was also used as a rustic bedding, as illustrated in this brief excerpt from Sir Water Scots' novel '''The Antiquary''':
<!-- ************ DON'T TOUCH ************* -->
<blockquote>
{{#seo:
''Oldbuck thrust something into his hand---Ochiltree looked at it by the torchlight,'' ''and returned it---``Na, na! I never tak gowd---besides, Monkbarns, ye wad maybe'' ''be rueing it the morn. Then turning to the group of fishermen and peasants--''

'' `Now, sirs, wha will gie me a supper and some clean pease-strae?'' ''

</blockquote>

Indeed, not only was it bedding for people-in the Elizabethan era to be as 'snug as pigs in pease-straw' was to be very well off! Many other literary references to pease strae exist. Scots poet Robert Tannahill wrote a song to the tune, called "When John and I Were Married", which mentions pease strae in the last line of every verse:
|image_alt=Traditional universal music
<blockquote>
}}
''When John and I were married,''<br>
<!-- ************ PLEASE!!!!! ************* -->
''Our hau'ding was but sma',''<br>
''For my minnie, canker't carline,''<br>
''Wou'd gi'e us nocht ava';''<br>
''I wair't my fee wi' canny care,''<br>
''As far as it would gae,''<br>
''But weel I wat our bridal bed''<br>
''Was clean pease-strae.'' <br>
</blockquote>
It is even referenced in a relic of the ancient cushion dance that survived into the 20th century in the children's rhyme:
<blockquote>
''The best bed of all,''<br>
''the best bed in our house ''<br>
''is clean pease straw.''<br>
''Pease straw is dirty,'' <br>
''will dirty all my gown;''<br>
''never mind my bonny lass -''<br>
''just lay the cushion down''<br>
</blockquote>
